We had a blast photographing Jenni & Matt's engagement session, which I already posted about on the photography blog. There were a bunch of fun ones that I wasn't sure about putting on that blog so I thought I'd add them on here. They're just too fun not to be shared, they show what a fun personality my little sister has. Matt is her perfect match and fits in our family just awesomely! We're so excited for them to be getting married!

And last, but definitely not least. The fight scene in the dark alley...

I sure do love my family! Time for another skit night, Jenni and Matt have some serious skills they've been hiding!

Earlier this month we had a breakthrough with bedtime. It all started when I figured out they like to be closer to each other when it's time for bed. I can shut the door and they'll fall asleep without too much fuss as long as their beds are right next to each other. At the beginning of our experiment of shutting the door for bedtime (before we realized we should push the beds together) we went in to check on them after they had fallen asleep and we discovered them together in the crib. Is that not the most precious site?

Chico loves making things, he always has. He loves to work with his hands, help his Daddy with projects, and stack all kinds of things to make projects of his own (yes, he calls them projects). I love seeing what he creates (even if it is a nightmare to clean up afterwards sometimes)! I think this particular project shown below was some kind of tent, yep, he just hauled all those blankets out there and created that himself!

A couple days later he created this rock formation, I was so impressed I just had to document it and take a picture (he loves it when I do that).

Then he added his trucks and asked me to take another picture:

Chico re-discovered his legos a week or two ago (probably since it's so freakin hot outside) and has had fun building boats. This was his first cutie boat that had a place for the doggie to be able to see.

There was an airshow at Hill Airforce Base a month ago. It was a cold rainy day and we just kept our fingers crossed all morning that it would clear up in time so we could go up and see the thunderbirds. We headed up there and it started clearing up as we got closer. We got the boys all pumped about the LOUD airplanes and about how COOL it was that they were so LOUD. The pumping up was necessary and good and it worked! (even now a month later they STILL get excited when they see a plane, helicopter, or even a bird, fly overhead). We got there in time to look around a bit, I snapped a few pictures of the shows before the thunderbirds but wanted to conserve space and battery power for the main event.

The Thunderbirds, the only part that matters (in Brent's mind). Honestly they are pretty dang amazing. Enjoy the pictures (even though the sky wasn't optimal for great pictures) but the planes sure are awesome!

After the Thunderbirds finished then we met up with Christa's family and walked around looking at all the planes. Love it when we can get a picture with all of us in it!

All of the following are fun pictures Brent took as we examined the planes:

About Me

Welcome to my blog, a snippet of our daily activities from the viewpoint of our lens. I blog because it helps me document the joys I find in our every day, because life is full of things worth remembering. My wonderful husband, Brent, and I have 3 kids, who on this blog are called "Chico", "Griz", and "Sanna". I get to stay home with them during the day. When I can catch a spare minute I oil paint, digital scrapbook, craft, and try out new recipes. We recently relocated our family to Oregon where my husband works as a PA.
